TSU Chairmanship

Huang was elected leader of the Taiwan Solidarity Union on 19 January 2007.[2]

Cross-Straits Economic Trade and Culture Forum

Huang stated in October 2013 that the Cross-Straits Economic Trade and Culture Forum that have been going on between the Kuomintang (KMT) and the Communist Party of China (CPC), has shown nothing to Taiwan, except how the high-ranking KMT officials fawn over Beijing for personal gain, either financially or politically. The forum has become the platform for the KMT to collaborate with the CPC in containing Taiwan. The Cross-Strait Service Trade Agreement had become a tool in which the government of China pressured Ma Ying-jeou's administration.[3]

Huang resigned his post shortly after the TSU failed to win any legislative seats in the 2016 elections.[4]
